"6 bytes x 200 messages per day equals 1200bytes per day..."

I think that math is a little off. i send an average of 200 messages per day. each message consisting of an average of 50 characters. 50 bits/8 equals 6 bytes per message. 6 bytes x 200 messages per day equals 1200bytes per day or to keep it simple 1MB per day. 30 days in a month equals 30mb. i have a 6mb plan and have never gone over with my usage. also use the internet and internet based programs constintly. it`s fairly safe to say that you can get tens of thousands of words for a MB of data.

I think every provider of mobile service has some number you can call to check what is your current data transfer and internet traffic. But as a general fact, the messenger doesn`t use as much data traffic as the internet browser or download. It actually uses less than a computer messenger program. John Russel.

It is depend upon your internet speed and how much time daily you are using it generally one character consume 1bit and 8bit consume 1byte so accourding to that it consume data and voice messanger consume more data than you are chating so depending upon your usage it consume.

I have my 3G Internet turned off on my smart phone and just use internet from WIFI, will kik messenger still charge me for data use even though my 3g is disabled or will it just use the data supplied from the WIFI?

Someone said: so if I have a shared data plan with 3 phones of 10 gb is that enough for kik use if its mainly im on wifi
